Good morning from freezing, snow covered Basel! Thanks all for your kind wishes

Testing, as usual Cuir Ottoman and Gomma, just to make extra sure that I need both. Will be testing something else, later, there's a beautiful perfume shop in town, Hyazinth, and I'm probably dropping in...

have a nice weekend!

This is how it looks today in Zagreb:-)

Covered in snow, and doing snow cleaning:-) wearing just a dab of Don Corleone, that tuberose scent smells like smoked ham at the beginning, its so gourmand vanilla tuberose that i like to have a sniff or two from this sample:-) , pity its not very long lasting one

RACINEHave all a Fantastic and Happy Weekend

Have I told you about the scent of jasmine? Have I spoken about the smell of the sea? The earth is scented. And I perfume myself to enhance what I am. That's why I can not wear a perfume that bothers me. Perfuming is an instinctive wisdom. And like all art, it requires some knowledge of yourself..."

Yippe-tee-yee-yayo! We have got some white stuff too, almost one whole inch, not as impressive as you guys in Southern Europe, but it breaks our consequitive 277 days without. Dry and powdery stuff, not enough moisture to do a snowball fight or make a snowman. Kiliwia, what did you guys get? We need more here, you know..... (ExtremeK to the south of us could use some too, I have heard....)

Powdery garden on me today -- Guirlandes de Carven, thanks to the Royal British Mail.

Hello everyone!

Sounds like lots of fun and festive things are in store today! Here, too. We're hosting a pre-performance cocktail party this evening before going to see Ballet Hispanico and the Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra, and I've got a lot to do! I'm in vintage Private Collection this morning for errands and party prep.

Y'all have a fantastic day!

Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual...Carl Sagan

Enjoying the remnants of last night's bedtime spritz of Miss Dior Le Parfum. A beautiful, strong scent this is (one spray to the cleavage allows heavenly diffused fragrance) that smells slightly different every time I wear it.

After a shower, SotD will be Private Collection Jasmine White Moss.

Re: SOTD: Saturday 8th December 2012

Caved in and made one or two calorific purchases today while out and about - jam, pate, biscuits, cherry brandy. Intended for the festive season but may not remain intact until then. Will-power will be severely tested over the coming days ...
